Some songs change the way nations see themselves. Took the Children Away is a moving indictment of the treatment of Aboriginal children from the stolen generations. From the lyrics of this iconic song, a very special book for children of all ages has been created. Featuring the heart-rending words of Archie Roach and the classic artwork of his late wife, soulmate and musical collaborator, Ruby Hunter, and including some stunning landscapes of south-west Victoria by renowned Queensland artist Peter Hudson, this book is an Australian masterpiece.
